Data Access Audit
& Investigation

Complete visibility into who touched what and when

Why It Matters

When a breach, audit, or anomaly occurs, organizations must answer a simple question: who accessed sensitive data? Most cannot do so with confidence.

Ray Security provides full visibility into data access activity, enabling teams to:

  • See who accessed what and how
  • Investigate incidents with verifiable evidence
  • Meet regulatory audit requirements (SEC, HIPAA, GDPR, and more)
  • Detect suspicious access early
  • Respond confidently to customer and partner requests

Transform Fragmented Logs Into Actionable Evidence

Breach Investigation

Know Exactly What Was Compromised

Identify every file accessed during a breach window, track the full scope of compromise, and provide board-level reporting with complete confidence.

Regulatory Compliance

Meet Audit Requirements Automatically

Generate comprehensive access audit trails required by SEC, HIPAA, GDPR, SOX, and other regulations, without manual log aggregation.

Anomaly Detection

Catch Threats Before They Escalate

Detect unusual patterns like bulk downloads, after-hours access, or suspicious file interactions that indicate potential insider threats or compromised accounts.

How It Works

Comprehensive Access Event Tracking

Capture every data interaction, downloads, opens, writes, renames, shares, and deletions, across all repositories, creating a complete forensic record of who touched what.

Multi-Dimensional Investigation

Search and filter access events by user, file, folder, date range, or action type. Reconstruct entire attack timelines or investigate specific anomalies with surgical precision.

More Use Cases

Data Access Review (DAR)

Comply with regulation and ensure least privilege access to data. Map who can access data versus who actually does. Remove unused or excessive rights to improve security. Enforce Just Enough Access (JEA).

Next-Gen Data Loss Prevention (DLP)

Protect data as it moves with unmatched visibility while extending the timeline to not only the past, but also the future. Ensure access justification, privacy, and confidentiality, and prevent unauthorized, uncontrolled, and unaudited data use.

AI Data Access Governance

Control the data accessed by LLMs like Copilot, ChatGPT Enterprise and Glean. Manage agentic AI access and prevent AI from revealing sensitive information. Maintain data lineage across all AI interactions.

Reduced Data Exposure

Prioritize and reduce blast radius: cut data exposure by 90% with predictive protection. Focus on critical data for faster, broader, and more precise security (secure-by-default), even for partially unclassified data.
